Metroid-Inspired Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate Shows Off Gameplay

Warner Bros. have shared a look at gameplay footage from Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate. You can check it out below. The game will be available on October 25th (tomorrow) for Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita worldwide.

But it’s not Retro, though… is it? Last I heard, Retro is owned by Nintendo.

Armature Games who developed this is made up on a lot of Retro Studios staff I hear, but unlike a number of cases you can think of (Clover/Platinum and Team Ninja minus Itagaki and friends) Retro Studios haven’t had a poor output despite losing those members.

So, wayne tech makes weapons and one of those weapons is named the bat-claw…

I’m too geeky to overlook that…

Whatevz.

It’s really sketchy that the gadgets are in Blackgate to begin with, before Bat Claws being in special WayneTech weapons caches. Arkham Asylum treaded the line with Bruce already setting up another Bat Cave there and Batman getting his goodies from various vehicles (more or less when the game feels like handing them, but not this haphazard).

my main question is: if the surrounings seem to be made for 3D exploration, Why side scroller?
don’t get me wrong, nothing agaist side scrollers, but even when he fights, you can see the enemies moving in 3D, so why not go all the way?
